We at altitude believe that you never truly know what someone else is going through. Behind every smile, conversation, or quiet moment may be challenges, worries, or battles that aren’t visible to the outside world.
That’s why kindness matters. Patience matters. A simple check-in, a listening ear, or a small act of understanding can mean more than you realise to someone who’s struggling silently.
Let’s choose compassion, give grace where we can, and appreciate the people around us — because sometimes, just being kind can make all the difference.
This is why we at altitude strive to take compassion and understanding through all aspects of care!

It’s a time for slowing down, celebrating achievements, enjoying good food, good company and making space for moments that feel special.
During this season we continue to support our participants with:
- Christmas shopping trips
- Festive baking and meal prep
- Crafting decorations and cards
- Community outings and events
- Companionship during a sometimes lonely time of year
Whether Christmas is busy and bright or calm and quiet for you — we’re here to walk beside you with care, support and a smile.
Let’s make these final weeks of the year meaningful, joyful and full of kindness.
If you or someone you know needs support leading into the holiday season, we’re only a message away 😊

We all have days where things feel heavier than usual — and that’s completely okay!
Reaching out for support doesn’t make you weak; it shows strength, courage, and self-awareness.
Whether you’re struggling with daily tasks, emotions, routines, or just need someone to walk beside you for a moment, asking for help is a brave step forward.
At Altitude Support Services, we’re here to remind you that you don’t have to do everything alone. Support is meant to be shared, and everyone deserves a hand when life gets a little overwhelming.
✨ You are never a burden
✨ Your feelings are valid
✨ Help is always within reach
Let’s break the stigma together — it’s more than okay to ask for help!

Darcy, an 18-year-old with autism and an intellectual disability, accessed employment support through NDIS. With help to identify his interests, build his résumé, complete a business-unit qualification and prepare for interviews, he secured a job as a school crossing supervisor. Darcy now earns his own income, has grown in independence, and continues his other passions. https://buff.ly/ysPHLgV

A Heartwarming Update About Our Sweet Alice!

Our participant Gill, recently received this beautiful message from Courtney, one of the Therapy Dog team members, about Alice — the amazing dog she helped raise!

“Alice is one of those ladies you could place with 20 clients if we could. We wouldn’t be able to have these incredible dogs that change people’s lives if it wasn’t for our valued raisers like yourself, so thank you immensely!
Alice was placed with a family of three, predominantly for a gentleman who suffers from narcolepsy and other mental health issues. Her temperament, behaviour and personality are just perfect. She’s now living her best life on a beautiful farm just outside of Canberra, with 15 acres to roam and plenty of furry friends!” 🐶

We at altitude are so proud to see Alice thriving and making such a positive impact. It’s moments like these that remind us just how special the bond between animals and people truly is. ❤️
Here’s to Alice and her wonderful new family — may her tail keep wagging and her heart keep healing. 🦮

Today is Remembrance Day.
Today, we pause to honour and remember the brave men and women who have served, and those who continue to serve, in our armed forces.
At Altitude Support Services, we take a moment to reflect on their courage, sacrifice, and the freedoms they have helped protect.
At 11am, we will join in observing a minute’s silence to remember those who gave everything for our country.
Lest We Forget. ❤️

Our team can help by:
- Creating weekly meal plans tailored to your preferences and nutritional needs
- Shopping for ingredients and ensuring fresh, quality produce
- Cooking nutritious meals so you can enjoy healthy, home-style food without the hassle
- Supporting independence by involving you as much or as little as you’d like in the process
